ORTEGON CUFINO, Oswaldo. Fernando Vallejo's Populism. Folios [online]. 2016, n.43, pp.27-38. ISSN 0123-4870.

From an interdisciplinary approach, this paper seeks to highlight populist attitudes in the narrative and speech of Fernando Vallejo. This paper shows how both the author and grammarian narrator of his novels and films (1994-2010, 2000) rely persistently and unambiguously in the promotion of a negative notion of the old institutions that founded the Latin American nations. His literature is provocative, authoritative and passionate with messianic communicative strategies that generally typify the populist discourse. The first part of this paper discusses the political ideology of Vallejo in the literary Latin American tradition. The second part analyzes how those noted communicative strategies flow. Some of Vallejo's novels, essays and public speaking are addressed in this paper. In conclusion, the paper highlights intelligence of Vallejian language as it articulates a strange form of social enchantment that lacks a defined style.
